Ice Locomotive At Fishkill Landing A New Ice Vessel
An experimental ice locomotive built by a New York boiler inspector sits on a freight car at Fishkill Landing. The six foot long machine features a cab, steam boiler, throttle, gauge, and two small cogwheels under the boiler driving two steel runners. It aims to dig into the ice with cogs, drawing a small platform car behind it. Previous experiments by Mr. Dodd at Fishkill Landing failed when a five to six ton steam iceboat lost traction and nearly crushed itself. The new design weighs about a thousand pounds and promises lighter weight than the prior model, though its practical speed and usefulness remain to be seen.

Typewriter insanity warns of eye strain and mental decline
A New York Morning Journal interview with Dr. Charles Higgins describes typewriters causing a disease akin to writers cramp. It begins with headaches, proceeds to memory loss and dyspepsia, and may render users unfit for mental work. The doctor links it to eye strain from rapid key focus. He suggests rest, proper glasses, and a piano-like keyboard to ease strain.
