His enterprise was the marvel of even the most en- thusiastic Omahans, His contribution 10 Omaha’s property as also the comfort of hundreds of her people is well ex- emplified in the factories he has estab- lished and the houses which he has built, which now afford happy homes to hundreds of thrifty families. Mr. Pruyn was one of the recent originators of it boom, He stands to-day y to strengthen and extend his word. Despi ports of an impuired financial condition, Mr. Pruyn recom- mences business on & foundation so solid as to be beyond all eriticism. In con- neetion with this, he unites perfect knowledge of business and an hone that has never been conscientiousl questioned. He has survived all a tacks made upon him, more than paid every claim foolishly made upon him, and to-day, with an” honest record of dollar for dollar. he announces to his old friends and the ecitizens of Omaha in gencral, that he will be pleased to meet them at the old stand, corner of Twenty-third and 1 st Friends of Omaha afd friends of every reputable and enterprising citizen will greet Mr. Pruyn’s purpose, energy and determination’ with pleasure will find at his place of busin thing in the line of inges, ~ln‘1"h harnesses, robes, sleigh-! -bells, \\Inp and in fact anything required to the used in connection with horse either summer or winter.
