Thanks, Dave. 
Suddenly it all makes sense. You are genius. Sorry for wasting your time on
this simple problem.
I'm can't be too grateful for your help.
So all I have to do is to manually eliminate the Rdfs:resource from
SuperClass.
Very helpful ,thanks again.

OK if you don't need inference then use:

OntModel individuals =
ModelFactory.createOntologyModel(OntModelSpec.OWL_MEM);

That will make this go away.

If you do need inference then use OWL_MEM_MINI_RULE_INF.

What seems to be happening is that the default for OntModels is to specify
RDFS reasoning. In RDFS then everything is an rdfs:Resource and every class
is a subclass of rdfs:Resource so what it is saying is not wrong. The RDFS
reasoner doesn't know about owl:Class but does know about rdfs:domain so as
soon as you make the domain statement the reasoner works out a bunch of
stuff about class2 but not quite enough to know that class1 is also a
subClass of rdfs:Resource (and so remove rdfs:Resource from the direct
superclasses).
