Complained of.
--A hospital under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association has, for some time past, been established on 10th street, next to
Crawford's old saloon.
It seems that a resort for lewd females has been also established opposite thereto, in rear of
Duval's drug store, and the managers of the hospital have complained to the
Provost Marshal that the attention of their patients is very much diverted from their legitimate business of sickness by the antics cut up by the lascivious residents of the domicil alluded to. They disport themselves at the windows and doors in a half nude state, and in various other ways contribute to disgust the sober sided managers of the hospital.
Sometimes the patient soldiers, throwing off the restraints which would seem to be imposed by the term in question, repair to the domicil in question, and exude therefrom afterward in a condition that forbids the supposition that their beverage was water only.
The authorities of the hospital have asked the
Provost Marshal to abate the nuisance, and it is quite likely that he will.
