Bridge Carried Away.

Royalton, Minn., April 15.—The bridge over the Mississippi west of here, built six years ago, was swept away Tuesday, along with the Platte river dam at this place. The Pine Knoll dam, McKean’s dam on Skunk Brook, and the Two Rivers dam have gone out also. It is the biggest flood for years.
