Then they passed to a side street, upon which two new places had recently been built.
One of the new places was a butcher shop, and this was dark and deserted.

Next to it was a new resort known as Mike Sherry's Palace, and this was well lit up and evidently in full blast.
"If Flapp is drinking he is evidently in this place," remarked Dick.
"But I don't see anything of him," he added, after peering through the swinging doors.
"They tell me this Sherry has a room upstairs, also for drinking purposes," returned Powell.

"Maybe Flapp and his friends are up there.
They wouldn't want to be seen in public, you must remember." "That is true.

But how do they get upstairs--through the saloon ?" "There may be a back way.

Let us look." They walked around to the rear of the building and here found a door leading into a back hall.
