Grand Jury Called
to Hear Evidence
OF Dansey Murder
White and Mrs. Jones, Held
by Prosecutor, Dcnounce
Charges as Unjust and
Call Arrests an Outrage
Special CorrcsDondcnce

Special Cores cspondcnce
ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 16.-Prose-
cutor Gaskill will place what evidence
he has against Charles S. White,
charged with the murder of "Billy'
Dansey, and Mrs. Edith L. Jones, ac-
cused of being an accessory after the
fact, before the Atlantic County Grand
Jury next week. Notices summoning
the jurors were sent out to-day.
The prosecutors move is believed to
have been FASTENED by his desire to
avoid having to disclose his case in
open court in habeas corpus proceed
ings instituted by G. Arthur Bolte,
counsel for White and Mrs. Jones. Mr..
Bolte has asked Supreme Court Justice
the application.
II have q little towheaded young
kin child" White said to-day in the
Jail at Mays Landing. 1t was his first
utterance for publication since his ar
rest.
Accident Theory Secuted
Had this thing happened by acci-
dent would never have been party
to an attempt to conceal it. ! would
have been the first to tell the Danseys
had their little boy been hurt in the
dahlia field.
Il have been advised by my attorney
not to discuss the case, and for that
reason cannot go into detail. But if
| ever am brought TO trial, although
| doubt that | will be, | will tell all
the facts. My arrest is one Of the
greatest outrages ever perpetrated by
overzealous officers of the law upon
an innocent man. l cannot account
for our arrest, unless the county de-
tectivcs had not been getting anywhere
in their investigation and the public
demanded that the mystery be cleared
up
Mrs. Jones, a motherly- looking wo-
man, who has been housekeepcr in
the White home at Hammonton for
prisoner, also discussed the case pub
licly to-day for the first time
Mrs. Jones Charges Injustice
"There is lot l would like to say
about the terrible injustice done me-
she declared. "In my declining years
am subjected to the humiliation of
charged with hiding the death of a
poor little boy whom loved almost as
much as If he were my own.
"The theory that Billy met his death
accidentally at the hands of Charles
White is ridiculous. Had anything of
that sort happened [ would have at
once run over to Mrs. Dansey and
called her to her baby's assistance"
HAMMONTON, N. J., Dec. 80
Edward II. White, chairman of the
town council and father Of Charles
S. White, said to-day he would insist
that the habeas corpus proceedings
instituted in behalf of his son and his
housekeeper, Mrs. Edith l.. White, be
pushed to an early conclusion.

Charles S. White is member, adopted

Mr.. Joseph Pennell is an illustrator
Of appalling industry. He has ran
sacked the world for material. He is
equally at his ease before a Greek
temple and a New York skyscraper,
under the shadow of a French cathe-
drai or amid the titanic operations of
the Panama Canal. At the Keppel Gal
lcry he shows the fruits of his latest
labors, etchings Of railroad activities
in the United States last year and this.
He has drawn our Grand Central in
side and out, he has studied rails and
bridges in Pennsylvania, Illinois and
Missouri. Some Of his earlier Ameri
can plates are shown and with them a
number Of European subjects, but the
exhibition is dedicated more especially
to the railway
1t is hazardous theme There is
nothing talismanic about it in itself.
The crux of the problem lies alto
gether in the ability of the etcher to
envelop his material in aesthetic
beauty, as Whistler did along the
Thames. His effect in the upshot
must rest upon distinction of line
upon design, upon the indefnable
magic which belongs to the needle
Long ago Mr. Pennell made an ap.
proach to these resources. When he
made the studies which accompanied
Mr.. Howells's Italian papers in "The
Century Magazine" he did the bes,
work of his career, some of the de-
llghtfullest Of American etchings. Since
then the production of a multitude OF
illustrations would seem to have dulled
his inspiration. The railroad etchings
in the present exhibition are doubtless
servlceable as records, and upon the
craftsmanship in some of them we
look with a certain appreciation. As
etchlngs, as pure works Of art, they
are prosaic and disappointing. Mr.
Pennell ought to take a leaf from the
book of Mr.. Muirhead Bone and learn
anew the glamour Of etching as a lin.
. ear art.

more troublesome than little electric

In dressing the tree strings Of pop

The Christmas tree seems to the

beautiful and splendid and gracious
thing that the long year brings to
them. Anticipation of 1t fills the
children's thoughts and hearts for
weeks before the great day comes. aud

important that the Christmas tree
should help to impress on young
minds the meaning of the years great

good will toward men" is the occa-
sion Of Christmas Joy and generosity.
Therefore the manner of dressing the
Christmas tree is worth considering.
All the old-fashioned decorations,
which the children have always helped
to make, we love for old associations
sake-the strings of popcorn and the
strings Of cranberries. little tarlatan
stockings and bags for holding candy
and nuts. Besides these there are
birds and butterflies, stars and crosses
to be added to the list of things that
are made at home. Festoons Of tin

strings of bright-colored beads, that
are bought at the stores will last from
year to year. but the homemade deco
rations are new every year. and their
making is a part of the play.
