WOMAN BARBER FAINTS WHILE SHAVING A MAN
While shaving a customer in a shop on Pike st., near Seventh av., this morning, Mrs. Daisy Lucas, aged 23, a barber, fainted and fell heavily against a partition, narrowly missing the prostrate patron's throat with the razor which she held in her right hand.
For two hours she remained unconscious, the scalp wound which she received in the fall making her condition very serious.
When the accident occurred confusion reigned in the shop, and the man being shaved by Mrs. Lucas went around for an hour or so with one half of his face shaven and the other half nicely bearded.
