         Killed on the Railroad - We are informed by Judge
       Thompson that MR. JEFFERS, father-in-law of S. De Golyer,
       was killed at Hudson about 12 o'clock to-day by the loco-
       motive of the day express bound west. He was walking on
       the railroad track in the eastern part of the village
       at a point near the curve, and was not seen by the engi-
       neer until too late to stop the train. MR. JEFFERS was
       about 65 years of age.
