Killed Self After
 Several Efforts Pioneer Member of California Bar After Three Attempts
 Takes His Life.

BERKELEY, Nov. 6.-After three determined attempts Judge W. O. Brittan, a pioneer member of the California bar, succeeded in taking his life yesterday. His first effort came when he tried to jump off . ferry steamer but was caught and saved for the time being. Soon afterwards he got hold of a small rifle and shot himself. He did not wound himself very dangerously, however, and he was taken to the hospital but there he succeeded in fighting off the nurse left to take care of him and he jumped out through a third story window and succeeded in killing himself. The officials are being condemned because of failure to take him in custody after the attempt to jump from the steamer, and for failure to have him properly guarded in the hospital.

OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED THAT N|SH HAS FALLEN
CAPITAL OF
 SERBIA FALLS
FALL OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED AND WAY TO TURKEY
 Is CLEAR.

BERLIN, Nov. 6.-The fall of Nish was officially announced this morning Preceding the capture of the Serbian capital desperate battle took place, the Serbian garrison fighting with the valor of desperation. The city IS only forty miles from the Bulgarian boundary and the intervening space is occupied by the Bulgarian troops so that the way across Serbia is now cleared completely for the advance of our army into Bulgaria and on to Constantinople. Although such is not officially stated it is taken for granted that the whole garrison has fallen into the hands of the Teutonic allies and the Bulgars as the capital was beleaguerd on all sides. It is known that allied forces are advanc- ing from the south to threaten our flank in the march eastward but large Bulgarian forces that were engaged in the attack on Nish will be detached immediately to meet the southern enemies.
