 BUT WILL RECOVER

Pine Bluff, Oct. 26.--D. J. Adams, Little Rock youth sentenced to 3 term in the Boys Industrial School by a jury in Pulaski circuit court several months ago, attempted to end his life here yesterday by swal- lowing a quantity of disinfectant. Physicians who attended him say he will recover
 Adams didn't like the Boys In dustrial School, so he asked to be transferred to the penitentiary. His request was granted after it was found he was 26 instead of 19 as was first believed. He was trans ferred to the Jefferson county jail here, and was to have been taken to the Tucker farm today.
 When he regained consciousness about II o'clock last night, Adams told officers at the jail that he swal- lowed the poison with suicidal in- tent He declared he did not want to face his friends wearing felon's garb He blamed his wrong-doing on evil associates. Adams said he lived at 703 Scott street, Little Rock, and that he formerly was employed by the Arkansas Water Company as a mechanic.

DISPUTE OVER USE OF CAVES
They Were Habitations or Tombs
of Primitive Race.

Curious caves i'm the Matsuyama
hills. in the province of Saitama, near
Tokyo. Japan, are believed by some
to have been the homes of an ancient
race called the Tuschiguma, or Earth
Spiders, who lived long before the
ancient Amos. Others think them TO
be tombs, while many are convinced
that they are merely shelters used
by the primitive tribe when pursued
by enemies.
The caves are all on the southern
slope OF the hills, and command an
extended view Of a fertile valley. This
strategic position argues for those
who believe the caves to have been
habitatiOns and not tombs. About zoe
Of them have been unearthed Seen
