your first example is correct

<document>
<entity name="newsfeed"></entity
<entity name="message"></entity
</document>

i have the same config for indexing 5 different tables

what you don't have from what i can see is a field name mapped to each column, 
e.g.

<field column="nf_text" />

i always have to provide the destination field in schema.xml, e.g.

<field column="nf_text" name="the_field" />
