Very much at his ease, he could have dispensed with questions just then. "Professional jealousy, I suppose," he replied. "When it comes to knowledge of Russian movements," he went on to explain, "that's Sobieska's department, mind you, but somehow Josef is always hours ahead of him through some source of his own. Naturally Sobieska takes the chance to rub a miscue in on the old chap."
Liquor had no effect upon the man's nerves, evidently, for his eyes and stroke were excellent. A miscue brought an oath from his lips, and he banged his cue upon the floor. "Rotten luck," said Warrington sympathetically, with the devil's banter in his voice. Mallow spun around, stared for a moment, then grinned evilly. "Here's our crow at last, Craig."
He got busy and uncovered a Silver Buck. It looked about the size of a Ferris Wheel. While beating it for the parental Roof he began laying out in his Mind all the Pleasures of the Flesh that he could command with the Mass of Lucre. The miscue he made was to flash his Fortune in the Family Circle. After breakfast he found himself being steered to the Farmers & Merchants' Bank.
"C.," who was painfully conscious that he might have made a miscue in the matter of the quotation, answered sharply. "No," he said. "Not at all. Don't be silly, Maria."

Who originated this scheme of revising the Bible we do not know, but whoever it was made a miscue. There was no one suffering particularly for a revision of the Bible. It was good enough as it was. No literary sharp of the present day has got any license to change anything in the Bible.
Blueworthy, he marched, but 'twa'n't as joyful a parade as an Odd Fellers' picnic. He could see he'd made a miscue a clean miss, and the white ball in the pocket. He knew, too, that a lot depended on his making a good impression the first thing, and instead of that he'd gone and "foozled his approach," as that city feller said last summer when he ran the catboat plump into the end of the pier.

Chance had it that the cover was off of the little used billiard table and that two men, in shirt-sleeved comfort, were playing. Both men he knew. They were Charley Bedloe and his brother, the Kid. The Bedloe boys were intent upon their game, the Kid laughing softly at a miscue Charley had made.
