'possible appearance of lantern' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'new jail out of place' is the wordplay.
'out of place' indicates anagramming the letters.
'new'+'jail'='newjail'
'newjail' with letters rearranged gives 'JAWLINE'.

'in' acts as a link.
